Which statements describe functions of antibodies? Select two options.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

This question lacks options, options are:

A.They maintain the cell’s shape.

B.They regulate cell processes.

C.They protect the body from infectious agents.

D.They signal the immune system to destroy pathogens.

E.They speed up biochemical reactions.

F.They send electrical signals.

The correct answers are C and D.

Explanation:

B cells and T cells use different biological weapons to attack the pathogen. The first secrete proteins called antibodies, which are distributed via the blood or the exposed surfaces to the environment, such as mucous. Antibodies are glycoproteins that circulate in the bloodstream looking for antigens that cause some type of damage to the body. Antibodies recognize and neutralize pathogens in a highly efficient way. Once the antibodies are produced, they remain circulating in the bloodstream for several months, which generates immunity for a long period of time to a certain antigen, in other words, they are capable of recognizing other molecules (antigens) in a very specific way and forming stable complexes with them (immune complexes). Its appearance in plasma is part of the adaptive immune response, in what is known as a specific humoral response, constituting a very effective defense against pathogens.

2. It collects information from the sense organ such as the eyes and the nose. c. peripheral nervous  system

3. It serves as the primary organ of the  central nervous system. f. spinal cord​  

4. It controls or regulates the body's internal brain environment, including the body temperature,  pulse and respiration rate, and bood pressure. e. autonomic nervous  system

5. It is one of the systems that is directly involved in maintaining the normal functions of cells. d. nervous system  

Explanation:

Neuron: Neurons are the structural and functional units in the nervous system.  Neurons transmit nervous impulses. These cells are formed in general by a cellular body, dendrites that are cytoplasmic extensions that receive stimuli from other cells, and an axon that is a long formation capable of conducting the electrochemical signals. Every neuron forms connections with other neurons. These connections are known as synapsis.

Peripheral nervous  system: Sense information is received by the peripheral nervous system and processed by neurons and synapses in the central nervous system. There are three types of neurons involved in this transmission: sensory or efferent neurons, interneurons, and motor or efferent neurons.

Spinal cord: The nervous system might be divided into the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system. There are two organs involved in the central nervous system that funtion as control centers. One of them is the brain, and the other organ is the spinal cord, surrounded by the vertebral column.  

Autonomic nervous  system: The autonomic nervous system is conformed by the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system. It has too many functions in the organisms, controlling pressure, heart bitting, body temperature, sexual responses, urination, digestion, general metabolism, among others. It controls and regulates the whole organism.  

The nervous system: Homeostasis refers to stability, balance, or equilibrium. The organism needs to maintain homeostasis to guarantee the correct functioning of cells, tissues, organs, and so on. The homeostatic regulation is controlled by the endocrine system and by the nervous system, which acts as the control center.

Reconstruct the phylogeny that most simply and accurately accounts for the distribution of synapomorphies among ingroup species. Given matrices as small and simple as the above example, one can "build" the tree from the bottom up in a series of sketches, adding clades or branches representing groups with the fewest synapomorphies near the base of the tree and those with the most at the tips. Using the unlabeled phylogeny as a starting point, draw the stepwise construction of a fully resolved phylogeny to account for all of the synapomorphies, and include the synapomorphies that identify each clade (the first one, character 2, is included to get you started; this is shared by all members of the ingroup).

Answers

Complete question:

1). Determine the character states for the following six characters that are present in species OG, 5, 7, 15, 17, 18. Assign the character state found in the outgroup (OG) as a 0 and the alternative derived state a 1; use only two states per character. Example, stem width: 0 = thin, / = thick 1 (Characters and plant species image in the attached files)

2). Score each taxon using the 0 and 1 notation about and add to this matrix (Matrix in the attached files)

4). Reconstruct the phylogeny that most simply and accurately accounts for the distribution of synapomorphies among ingroup species. Given matrices as small and simple as the above example, one can build the tree from the bottom up in a series of sketches, adding clades or branches representing groups with the fewest synapomorphies near the base of the tree and those with the most at the tips.

Answer:

Characters: Stem width: Thick-1 // Thin-0 Leaf edge (shape): Pointed-1 // Blunt-0  Flower base (shape): Narrow-0 // Wide-1 Flower orientation: Downward (Pendant)-1 // Upward (Vertical)-0 Petal color: Purple-1 // Yellow-0 Fruit shape (inset on card, on left): Round-0 // Elongated-1Complete Matrix in the attached filesOrder in the phylogeny reconstruction: OG --> 7 --> 5 --> 15 --> 17 and 18 (tree + evolutive changes in the attached files)

Explanation:

NOTE: You will find the complete activity in the attached files.

The principle of maximum parsimony or maximum simplicity states that among all possible trees within a group of species, the most probable  is the one that requires us to postulate the least number of evolutionary changes. So, to reconstruct a phylogeny we need to choose the tree that requires the less number of changes. To determine the character states for all the six characters, we assigned the number cero to all the characters expressed in the out-group. Thin steam, blunt leaf, narrow flower base, upward flower orientation, yellow petals, and rounded-seeds are all cero states. The other characters are 1.The above information of character state was used to fill in the matrix, specifying which character state belongs to each species according to their traits. The matrix was useful to reconstruct the phylogeny, to identify the autapomorphic trait, and to visualize all the clades.

In sweet pea plants, purple flower color is dominant over red flower color and long pollen grain shape is dominant over round pollen grain shape. Two sweet pea plants that we heterozygous for both flower color and pollen grain shape are crossed with one another. A geneticistis surprised to observe that there are fewer round purple offspring and long red offspring than were predicted by the 9:3:3:1 expected phenotypie ratio Which of the following statements provides the most reasonable prediction to account for the deviation from the expected results?
A) in sweet pea plants, the gene for flower color and the gene for pollen grain shape are genetically linked
B) In sweet pea plants the genes for flower color and for pollen grain shape both exhibit codominance
C) Several mutations occurred spontaneously producing a deviation from the expected phenotypic ratio of the offspring
D) The genes for flower color and pollen grain shape are inherited independently because of the law of independent assortment

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - option A) in sweet pea plants, the gene for flower color and the gene for pollen grain shape are genetically linked.

Explanation:

In this given case the result of phenotypes are not as expected and does not follow the law of independent assortment presented by Mendel. It appears to be the case of genetic linkage as it is not following the mendelian law by producing fewer round purple offspring and long red offspring which do not satisfy the expected mendelian ratio of 9:3:3:1. Mutation can lead to failure in producing proteins but could not affect the phenotypic ratio of the plant.

Thus, the correct answer is - option A.

Medel was the Father of Genetics, who gave the laws on independent assortment, dominance, and segregation of the genes.

However, there are some exception that violates these laws, such as genetic linkage is one of the exceptions that violates the law of independent assortment.

The correct answer is:

Option A. in sweet pea plants, the gene for flower color and the gene for pollen grain shape are genetically linked

In the given data, the results can be interpreted as:

The Law of independent assortment states that the two or more alleles of different genes are assorted independently.

In the given example, the genetic linkage occurs, which does not follow the ratio of 9:3:3:1. The genetic linkage does not follow the law of independent assortment, which results in fewer purple offspring.

Thus, mutation can cause the failure of Mendel laws and can affect the phenotypic traits of an organism.

Therefore, Option A is correct.

Attempt to rise up on the toes.Observe what body motions occur to keep the center of gravity within the base of support whenthese activities are performed without the impediments.

Answers

Answer:

When the body is supported by a wall then it can move in a position counter gravity. The gravity tries to pull the body down and the body responds to it with a slight delay because of wall support.

Explanation:

The body is lifted in upright position with the help of feet. The body rises but after few minutes the gravitational force creates pressure on the body and the body comes down to a natural state. Similarly if the open door is used to perform counter gravity activities then the body will stay for a lesser period in a state because of opened door instead of firm wall support.
